If the school you want to go to is close by your parents, you could live with them for the 2 years and just do some part time side work to have a little spending money.. take out just the amount of loans you need for tuition to minimize the debt.

But if you do decide to get the PhD, making the whites on the job call you Dr. Rose would be fun

"It's Dr. Rose!"

One of my friends who is a Dr. went to a PWI and was about 1 of 3 negroes in the graduating class. I would like to think they take into consideration race especially with a STEM.

you get a certain amount of free GRE sends.. and then I think the additional ones aren't much if I remember correctly. The main expenses that added up for me were the transcripts and mostly the app fees... so that's great if you get a waiver

I would set up a meeting with your advisor (or professor in your field that you have a good rapport) as soon as you can about graduate school and your professional goals. Heck, chat up your TAs as well about their graduate application experiences so you get a better idea of what to expect.

I still have some vocabulary flashcards for the new GRE in my closet I think. If you need them this year, let me know.

In undergrad, I had a mentor in the dept that helped me while my advisor was a bitter blond bish. I want to send her a fukk you card on graduation day letting her know she was of no help. If I could send her a sh*t sammich...

lol Anywho, I'll look tonight for the cards and PM you.

that's how all my undergrad psych professors were. They psych department had some major research grants and that's all the old ass professors cared about. They were very cold to the undergrads

My minor dept (AA studies) was completely different. Some black professors will call you into their office despite your "A" in their class on some "Get your life---whats your future plan" type sh*t
